Sonic Lost World is the biggest part — that we know of to date — of Nintendo's three game exclusivity deal with SEGA, and it looks rather promising. It won't be the first time that SEGA's mascot has been exclusive to Nintendo's systems, with Sonic Colours certainly accumulating fans for its Wii and DS versions.

Good news for those fans, and perhaps those that haven't tried out those titles, is that abilities from those games — and new additions — will be present and correct in Lost World. SEGA has once again given IGN the scoop with more new footage that shows some of these abilities in action, along with some new environments to enjoy.

We were rather impressed with what we played of this title in our recent Sonic Lost World first impressions, and this new footage does the hype no harm at all. It hits NA on 22nd October, so check it out and let us know what you think in the comments below.

@Pixel-Perfect Sonic games have never the best designs ever, and these ones are REALLY out there. I do like that Sonic's quills are shorter. I also like the red ones voice."It is your fate to be destroyed, Why don't you just lay down and die!"Like that line too.

Finally, a release date, and its not that far away! My local Gamestop has started accepting pre-orders for this, so I'll be most likely getting this, Batman, and Pokemon Y that month It went from barely any games to everything coming out around August and onward

As a Sony lover i sure want this. I am happy that i own both the 3ds and the Wii U because it's going to be played a lot. Is this cross buy or buy seperate? If so, i will still buy both:D Looks amazing.

@6ch6ris6 You OWE it to yourself to go pick up Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure on the DS, those are superb 2d Sonic games that no one ever talks about, also Sonic adventure 2 on the GBA was near perfect.

that game also looks stupid. it always seems to me that you do almost nothing in sonic games. sonic just rushs through loops and everythign without any platforming. and the levels look way too big to navigate. i wanna explore levels. it seems that i can not do that in sonic games

This game is really awesome looking. With this game, my list to buy things has rounded out pretty well. I do wish they'd make a DQ new game for the 3DS. A remake is pretty cool, but I would like a new story.
